After a short hand-for-hand session, Patrick Didier Gastaldi was eliminated in 49th place, earning the unwanted title of bubble boy.

The hand saw three-way pre-flop action with Gastaldi all in and called by both Daniele Mazzia and Guillaume Bayt, who would ultimately check down the {7-Spades}

{7-Spades}

{9-Spades}

{4-Spades}

{2-Clubs}

{3-Spades}

board.

At the showdown, Gastaldi turned over a pocket pair of eights only to find them crushed every which way under the sun by Bayt's {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{J-Spades}

-- the nuts. Mazzia mucked his hand, but told us that he had the {K-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

.

All 48 remaining players in the tournament are now guaranteed a minimum payday of $15,700.
